Description
A high-end cocktail book inspired by the hit songs of the Grammy Award-winning Platinum artist—blending 50+ innovative cocktail recipes with funny anecdotes only T-Pain can deliver.
The ultimate gift for music lovers and at-home mixologists—featuring glossy jet-black pages, stunning gold details, vibrant photography, and a faux leather cover.
In 2007, “rappa ternt sanga” T-Pain released his hit single “Can I Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin’),” propelling the artist to mainstream royalty. Since then, the Tallahassee, Florida native has secured his position as one of the most successful and diverse hip-hop artists in the world—and it all started, really, with a song about liquor. Now, T-Pain brings his love of mixology and music to this fun, personal, and hilarious cocktail book.
Working with James Beard Award winning mixologist Maxwell Britten, T-Pain sets cocktails to his music. Showcasing a variety of flavors (and potencies), each drink has been carefully curated to reflect a sentiment from one of his hit songs. Can I Remix You a Drink? includes:
• 50+ creative cocktail recipes—both classic and new—for parties, local bars, pre-gaming, and quiet nights at home
• Hilarious personal anecdotes about T-Pain’s life and lessons while inebriated
• Glossy gold and jet-black pages featuring high-end drink photography
• Luxurious faux leather cover with gold foil and an embossed monogram of T-Pain himself
Considering T-Pain is known for unorthodox mixes in his music, you can expect the same from his drinks, along with some classic cocktails modified by T-Pain himself. Whether you’re a longtime fan or simply a fan of drink-making, Can I Mix You A Drink? is the cocktail book for you.
